POLICE have warned Casey residents who may have been sent a chain letter over the last few weeks.
A 5c piece comes attached to the letter, which asks the recipient to spend a total of $205 to send out 200 more letters to random addresses.
The letter claims recipients will eventually receive more than $160,000 back if they follow the steps properly. Narre Warren Senior Sergeant Daleen Spice said the letter, although not illegal, could cause some problems to unsuspecting locals.
“We are just asking people to be very mindful. Just be very cautious,” Sen Sgt Spicer said.
“You never get something for nothing,” she said.
